Ikea furniture sucks!


People say 'Ikea furniture is nice' and 'Ikea furniture is cheap'. Well, I don't think so, because now as I am moving house I find that it is the Ikea furniture that is all falling apart! I'm serious, the shelves on the bookcase are bent and warped, when we tried to move a 'solid' looking clothes cabinet to a neighbour's unit the whole thing fell apart in the lift! We had to tilt it to get it into the lift of course but one would expect that shouldn't cause the whole thing to collapse! I felt so embarrassed with my neighbours..And today the painter came to paint the ceiling and he tried to shift a jewellery or display cabinet and the legs just totally came off! It's like as if Ikea furniture as an expiry date and is meant to fall apart after few years. They just don't make furniture like they used to, those that last forever..so to me Ikea is selling inferior quality furniture and is quite expensive considering they only last a while..

Matured?!

I've had it with this 'matured' look thing that people always give me. I don't want to look 'matured' because that equals 'old'. No doubt some may actually mean it but I have a sneaky feeling that some may just be trying to be polite..I want to look young. fullstop. period.
